True Grit (2010)

There is nothing more to say about this movie than amazing! Remade Western’s have been doing well in my book! If you are not familiar with the story, we follow young(14yrs) Mattie Ross (Steinfeld) as she tries to find her father’s murder, Tom Chaney (Brolin). After handling her father’s financial affairs she has enough money to hire a marshal to find Chaney. This is when we are introduced to Rooster Cogburn (Bridges).

The reviews are right. Bridges needs an award for how well he plays this character. On the way the duo gets some unwanted help from Texas Ranger LaBoeuf (Damon) pronounced LeBeef. In the end he does help them a little. This is a must see. If you are on the fence, go see it. You will change your mind. I give this film 5/5 pistols!
